There are many ways you can do this. One is to use OMIT with SKIP:
For example, suppose you have a holiday from 2023-11-13 through 2023-11-17.
You could use this:
PUSH-OMIT-CONTEXT
# Holiday week
OMIT 2023-11-13 THROUGH 2023-11-17
# Add other holidays here
REM Monday SKIP MSG Monday lesson plan
REM Tuesday SKIP MSG Tuesday lesson plan
# .. etc
POP-OMIT-CONTEXT
Note that the THROUGH syntax for OMIT is relatively new; you need
Remind 04.00.02 or newer. The PUSH-OMIT-CONTEXT and POP-OMIT-CONTEXT
lines ensure that any holidays you add here don't affect other reminders.
If you want them to affect other reminders, you cal leave those
lines out.
Regards,
Dianne.
